    FPV drones and the surge in popularity of BnF quads. You used to have to at least know how to solder it all together.

      Oh god. You can buy one on Temu for $10. I’m guessing they overheat and explode.

        The ones I’m thinking of are carbon fiber bodied, weigh about 600-800g, and easily hit 100mph/160kph. Usually we recommend newbies fly a few dozen hours in a simulator first but seeing people post pics with cuts from propellers going up their arm was a semi regular occurrence on the subreddit.
